Which Chow Recipes Have You Tried?

I am going to make the (http://www.chow.com/recipes/10376) Coconut Rice with Black Beans and Fried Plantains when I get home.

It made me wonder which Chow recipes have you tried and liked? Do you have a favorite?

    I made the molten walnut cake http://www.chow.com/recipes/10787 and baked it in ramekins rather than the cake pan. You can read my process there at the recipe. They're incredibly good, but definitely a special occasion dessert, very rich.

      For our Mother's Day picnic last month, I baked the Fresh Ginger Cake. This recipe is a keeper - quick, easy, delicious.

        One I've made a few times is the big ginger cookies.

          Galleygirl's pear tart!

          Best simple cake/breakfast treat/afternoon snack I've ever met or made.

          Lots and lots of threads about it - this isn't the original (which I couldn't find on a quick search), but it does include the recipe: http://www.chowhound.com/topics/27773...

            I made the buffalo chicken tenders with blue cheese coleslaw. Definately interesting. The coleslaw had a great flavour, but next time I will cut down on the amount of dressing applied as it was very creamy. The chicken came out quite well. http://www.chow.com/recipes/10831

            I have also made the lasagna alla bolognese. It was a hit. The sauce is definately a keeper recipe. http://www.chow.com/recipes/10834

            We made the oregano marinated grilled chicken last night:
            http://www.chow.com/recipes/10926

            We love butterflied grilled whole chicken and do it a lot in the summer and this marinade was a winner.
            I find it physically imposible to actually follow a receipe verbatim! So... I added a couple of garlic cloves and a pinch of smoked paprika. My ratio of thyme to oregano (both fresh from my herb garden) was more like one-to-one. I saved about 1/4 cup of marinade (did not touch the raw chcken) to drizzle over the final grilled product.... yummy.

            Served this with maple mashed sweet potatoes and hericot verts (steamed in a foil packet with green onions on the grill).

                I finally bought my first tin of anchovies yesterday. (Childhood trauma with a Caesar salad kept me away from them till now.) Would you recommend this as a good intro to cooking with -- and more importantly, eating -- anchovies? Thanks.

                    Yes because the anchovies will be incorporated into the dressing(unless you choose to garnish the salad with the little guys) and you will not have the visual..

                  I tried the grilled greek salad. Will definitely make again.

                    I made the braised red cabbage w/bacon recipe which turned out great
                    http://www.chow.com/recipes/10712

                    and the vegan chocolate cupcakes which also were a hit. I ended up buying the cookbook where this recipe came from because I liked the cupcakes so much.
